There are hundreds of puppies in Doha looking for new homes!! We have new dogs bought into the shelter daily - today we took in a pup that was wandering around the farm on his own. Why not wait and see what you find in Qatar.As MaryCatherine said - puppies are not always the answer - sometimes theyre harder to introduce as they havent learnt any manners yet!

Please be aware that you can't bring a puppy into Qatar under the age of 16 weeks so you will not be able to get a young one abroad. If you decide that 16 weeks is young enough then we have plenty that young at QAWS!

It is also expensive as you would have to keep it in the country of origin until 16 weeks, it must be fully vaccinated before coming here, then you will need import/export permits from both countries (and sometimes health certificates as well), the air freight, crate, pet relocators (if you want all the hassle taken away from you) and then the cost of the puppy on top of all of that.

There are too many dogs in Qatar as it is, and there are lots of unwanted litters born all the time. Please take the time to wait until one is available in Qatar. There are always adverts and comments on QL about puppies as well. Tanya123 has a shi tzu pup for sale so wny not PM them.

Importing a new puppy should always be a last resort - you said you're not bothered about having a purebred so hang on in there until there is one that really deserves a new home.
